Compared to the lazy, leisurely days of summer vacation, the return of fall, with its packed schedules and end-of-the-year rush, can feel both exciting and overwhelming. That's why we basically live in activewear once September rolls around.
When you have to run from Pilates class to a coffee hang or after-school pickup straight to your kiddo's soccer practice, there's no time to fret over what to wear. On busy days when you may not even have time to stop at home between activities, opt for versatile layering pieces in soft, stretchy, breathable fabrics. Light outerwear items that provide protection against the early morning chill can be shed when the sun is shining bright in the afternoon. Leggings with sophisticated details, like pockets or funky stitching, will look just as cute on your grocery run as they will in your workout class.
We rounded up some of our favorite elevated activewear pieces to get you through even the most chaotic of days. Keep reading to check out our picks.
